April is Second Chance Month where people all over the country have the shared goal of informing and highlighting the many opportunities for state, local, and tribal governments and community-based service providers to build meaningful second chances for people returning from incarceration.
We can't think of a better way to recognize this special month than by highlighting the work of Augie Ghilaraducci in the reentry space. Once incarcerated himself, Augie made the most of his experience by using his time in prison to help others. As part of a community outreach program, he spoke about his ethical failures at high schools, colleges, and businesses for almost a decade. He also developed a series of employment readiness, financial literacy, life skills, and barriers to re-entry courses that he taught to fellow inmates. When he was released, he turned his passion into a second career empowering those dealing with incarceration, addiction, trauma, loss, and other life-changing events to break the chains of the past and create a positive new future. Working with Youturn Health and 2nd Opportunity Augie brings support and hope to those getting back into life.
